how to set router port speed limit

hi:
i want to set the port speed limit on my linksys 4 port router .my cable
internet speed is 6M.I need set one of the four port be 1M because that port computer downlord too much.Please geve me the detail way. thanks a lot!

Some more modern routers have this built in, the older, or cheaper ones will need some sort of host computer to act as a server to process this limitation. If i were to guess, Cisco would have this software for trial or purchase. If nothing else, research on their site, would provide you the correct terminology for searching google more efficiently.

If your NIC cards are running 10/100/1000 and your router is faster. you
will still only down load at the speed the entire network is capable of
running. If you seriously want to throttle your download speeds.check the
properties of your respective NIC interface, set them to 10mb or 100mb. Most
will allow you to set the speed and other setting like. duplex or
half-duplex.

Why would you want or need to throttle your down load to "LESS" than you are
paying for? Seems like a waste of money, counterproductive . complaining
about being too thin, too healthy, too rich, too handsome, too pretty - I
feel your pain. seriously and truly - I do!
